Riches

To some are given riches of the world.
To others are given riches of the spirit.
What does one do with riches but to use them.

Knowledge and Wisdom are both gifts.
But knowledge is a gift of the mind;
Wisdom is a gift of the soul.
The Prophet does not shout from the rooftop,
but speaks quietly in the doorway.
The Prophet must speak.
But to speak is not to be a prophet.

Heat is not warmth.
Intelligence is not wisdom.
Light is not illumination.
Thought without action is sterile.
Action without thought is foolishness.

Obligations

A man has three obligations:
one to G_d, one to himself, and one to others.
To honor G_d is to honor the light within.
To honor oneself is to feed the flame that is your being.
To honor others is to recognize the light in all.
